Acer Spin 5 SP513-52N-85LZ User Review and Ratings

• Good for me

  Best computer for the price. Came with all the upgrades that I needed for everyday computer use and the price was amazing. The touch screen is as advertised and my daughter can draw in the apps. Enough power (RAM) to get by and use for all programs.

  This is my wife's laptop. Neither her nor I are computer experts that can rate how fast this thing is, or anything like that. But she has had zero problems with it. I guess we've had this for about 3 months now and my wife routinely lets our 5-year-old daughter use it for watching YouTube videos. I think that is where the ease of use of the touchscreen comes through. As our 3-year-old son is typically on hand to watch the videos too, it says something about the unit's physical durability as well.

• Great all around workhorse but not a gamer or photo unit

  3 month review:I?ve been using this as my daily laptop for the past three months. Overall this laptop as configured (i7, 8gb ram, 256gb ssd) has worked great for the daily grind. Office suite, browsing, email, presentations via the flip screen, etc.I do photography as a hobby on the side and also leverage Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. Unfortunately I felt that the integrated video card prohibited this unit from being able to really shine in the photo world. My recommendation would be to ensure you get the Acer version that has the NVIDIA chipset instead of the integrated graphics. This also became apparent when i tried to slip in some gaming fun. Fortnite and DOTA 2 were too much for the onboard graphics and resulted in having to set the graphics settings to low in order to have a consistent FPS with no lag.I will say that I was a little surprised at the sheer number of bloatware programs installed on this unit. LinkedIn, eBay, Ebates, and at least 15 others were already preinstalled. They were easy enough to uninstall, but be aware this isn't the cleanest install of Win 10.The Win10 partition is preinstalled on the 256GB SSD leaving about 200GB usuable after I got rid of as much bloatware as possible.The 1080p IPS screen seems a little dark (even at max brightness settings).I am surprised that a system with an i7 processor only comes with 8GB of RAM. Would expect 12GB or 16GB to really set this unit in the sweet spot.I have enjoyed really good battery life with this unit and have never felt there was unnecessary or accelerated drain. This may have to do with the perceived dark IPS screen (even adjusted brighter)All in all, there are a couple minor irritations (bloatware, dark screen, etc.) but having used this full time for the past three months. For the price, I think you'd be hard pressed to find something better with these specs.
